Interesting Teacher Comments: From BC Trainings, 2014

Interesting and inspiring feedback from trainings: May to August 2014

I understand now that teaching is not just standing in front of the class, but a discussion/dialogue with your children. Instructions have to be clear and detailed.

The BCP will be very helpful especially for slow learners, but also for the fast learners who will develop more language by writing and answering in full sentences.

It made me rethink how I teach and how I can change the language I use.

Before the workshop I thought (that) I knew how to teach or introduce my lessons, but now I know that I was not doing justice to my learners. I took them for granted ... as if (they would) very easily understand my instructions.

Now I can help the learners from our poorer areas to verbalize for themselves…  they are becoming more confident and starting to love their educational journey.

What I understand about the Basic Concepts Programme is that it is very useful in all subjects. I must implement it in every lesson. I must also try to be as accurate and precise as possible when teaching.

Basic Concepts are the building blocks on which cognition and perception is built.
